Details: Only non-hacktivated firmwares without Multitasking Enabled come with custom boot logos, root size is shown in brackets next to the device (I just used the default setting.) Also baseband update is not enabled.

The only one’s that have custom ones are non-hacktivated firmwares that don’t have Multitasking enabled. It says in the article cause I just updated it. I will re-upload those firmwares tomorrow without the custom boot logos.

Is the root size in any way relevant(meaning if I should check what I have now and pick a corresponding one)? And why wait for the hacktivated one when you can unlock the phone via ultrasnow? Thanks man

It will be to some people, for me I’ve never changed it as never had any problems and hacktivated is when the device is activated on a different carrier not unlocked to a different carrier which is what ultrasn0w does. So if you an unofficial carrier on your iPhone you will need to wait for hacktivated so that you can use your device on that carrier then use ultrasn0w to unlock your device.

Hmm weird I never had to think about hacktivated/non-hacktivated firmwares and both my iPhones are on unofficial carriers. I just jailbroke it and used ultrasnow and it worked…Well seems like I’m going to wait a bit more for some info on this. Thanks for the valuable information!

Yeah I have the old bootrom and everything. Iphone 3gs on t-mobile so I downloaded http://depositfiles.com/files/0iuwfehw6 and tried loading up the phone in DFU mode then restoring but then I get the error. Something I’m doing wrong?

No PwnageTool 4.01 was only released this morning so all my CFW was made using the original version with the iBooks issue present. I’m going to re-upload the CFW for all devices using PwnageTool 4.01 but it won’t be quick as it’s not a quick process.

There is a no custom logo version which I uploaded and is in the list. http://depositfiles.com/files/5ak6bso3h is the download link for the 3gs without custom boot logos using PwnageTool 4.0. The next lot using the fixed version of PwnageTool won’t have the custom logos as I didn’t intend them to originally.

Hey this is huge help for windows users. Trying not to do this too much so will wait for the 4.01 versions. Am looking for the 3gs without any custom logos. Need to unlock it for another carrier… thanks,

Yeh I was a Windows user back when 3.0 was released so I thought I’d try and get them out as quick as possible so you can jailbreak your device. The 4.01 versions will be out in a few hours. I’ll be uploading all of them with no custom boot logos as no one wants them and I didn’t mean for them to be in their either but it was the default.

I’ve found the main issue: Its nothing about the bootloader (which is OK , because i have the old one) but you need a phone in a previous PWNED state – otherwise you cant load a custom firmware anymore on it yet.

I’ve erased my pwned state by updating via itunes on the official way (instead of taking a custom firmware and try this before).

This is the issue -> now i’ve installed 3.1.3 and jailbreaked it via spirit.. This makes me “stuck” on 3.1.3 until a new userland jailbreak comes out for iOS4.
